THE PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF CALIFORNIA - This site is dedicated to exposing the continuing Marxist Revolution in California and the all around massive stupidity of Socialists, Luddites, Communists, Fellow Travelers and of Liberalism in all of its ugly forms.

"It was a splendid population - for all the slow, sleepy, sluggish-brained sloths stayed at home - you never find that sort of people among pioneers - you cannot build pioneers out of that sort of material. It was that population that gave to California a name for getting up astounding enterprises and rushing them through with a magnificent dash and daring and a recklessness of cost or consequences, which she bears unto this day - and when she projects a new surprise the grave world smiles as usual and says, "Well, that is California all over."

Huge special interest money buys the election

A 19th Century Political
Stump Speech.Unlike
today, true democracy existed in 19th Century America. Because the size of
House districts was small the main expense a candidate had was to open a few
kegs of beer, jump on the nearest tree stump and explain his positions to voters
who may or may not have been sober. It is the opinion of many that a candidate
sounds better with every additional beer.

Massive Election Corruption - Special interest groups are buying their very own personal Congressmen.

Billionaire Cartels of labor unions and business groups are buying California Puppet Congressmen to do their bidding after the election.

What California voters want has no meaning.

Corrupt special interest labor union and business money both want to raid the Treasury for their own ends.

Not that long ago America was a true Republic with small election districts so the people could elect their very own representatives.

Those days of freedom are gone. The size of Congressional Districts has ballooned from 30,000 people to now 700,000 people. Today only millionaires or those dropping their pants and bending forward for Billionaire Cartels have any chance of winning an election.

Congressional races around California are being bought and paid for by millions in outside money from Cartels based out of Washington D.C. Until there is real election reform with smaller districts the ultra-wealth Cartels of unions and business will continue to purchase their own legislators.

Now, the Sacramento-area race between Republican Rep. Dan Lungren and
Democrat Ami Bera has drawn more spending by outside groups than any
congressional race in the country — more than $6.2 million — as the parties
battle for control of the House.

Our politicians are bought
and paid for.

In the San Fernando Valley, Democratic
colleagues-turned-bitter-rivals Howard L. Berman
and Brad Sherman have,
along with outside groups, spent more than $11 million on the race, one of the
nation's costliest reports the Los Angeles Times.

Bill Bloomfield, a wealthy Manhattan Beach
businessman running as an independent against Democratic Rep. Henry A. Waxman of
Beverly Hills, has put more than $3.7 million of his own money into his
campaign. Waxman, who has raised about $1.4 million, had more than $1 million in
the bank as of Sept. 30 for the crucial final weeks of the campaign, according
to the latest campaign finance reports.

Big Money buys US Elections & Elected Officials

An excellent video, but it misses the point that if districts were smaller then corrupt special interest union and business money would not be needed to fund campaigns.

In 11 of the state's 53 congressional districts, each of the candidates had
raised more than $1 million, according to the Center for Responsive Politics,
which tracks money in politics. That's up from the five races in 2010 in which
opposing candidates each raised $1 million or more.

The parties this year have targeted 10 of the state's congressional races, The
House GOP
campaign arm plans to spend about $10 million in California, more than ever
before, a spokesman said. Its Democratic counterpart expects to spend $8.6
million, much of that for TV ads, a spokeswoman said.

Julius KahnA Republican Congressman from SanFrancisco 1899 to 1903. His district hadabout 210,000 people, not the current andinsane level of 700,000.

The Central Valley race between Republican Rep. Jeff Denham and Democrat Jose Hernandez and the La Jolla-area battle between Republican Rep. Brian P. Bilbray and Democrat Scott Peters are among the top races in the country for independent spending by outside groups. Each has drawn more than $5 million.

The Stockton-area race between Democratic Rep. Jerry
McNerney and Republican Ricky Gill also has drawn $2.5 million in outside
spending, in addition to the more than $2 million each of the candidates has
raised.

The Berman-Sherman slugfest could come close to,
perhaps even surpass, the $11.5-million spending record for a California House
race set in 2000 in the Burbank-Glendale-area race won by Democrat Adam B. Schiff over
Republican incumbent James E. Rogan.

Spirit of Democracy America, a "super PAC" heavily
funded by Republican donor Charles Munger Jr., has spent $556,000 in support of
GOP Assemblyman Paul Cook of
Yucca Valley in a congressional race against fellow Republican Gregg Imus, a tea
partyer and founding member of an anti-illegal-immigrant border patrol
group.

Simply, one man may buy the seat for his candidate. The voters be damned.

.Corrupt Special interest money from unions and business buys their own Congressmen. The people have next to no voice in the selection of their own representatives. Those winning an election are simply puppets of their Money Masters.

About Me

"Stood in firelight, sweltering. Bloodstain on chest like map of violent new continent. Felt cleansed. Felt dark planet turn under my feet and knew what cats know that makes them scream like babies in night.
Looked at sky through smoke heavy with human fat and God was not there. The cold, suffocating dark goes on forever and we are alone. Live our lives, lacking anything better to do. Devise reason later. Born from oblivion; bear children, hell-bound as ourselves, go into oblivion. There is nothing else.
Existence is random. Has no pattern save what we imagine after staring at it for too long. No meaning save what we choose to impose. This rudderless world is not shaped by vague metaphysical forces. It is not God who kills the children. Not fate that butchers them or destiny that feeds them to the dogs. It is us. Only us.
Streets stank of fire. The void breathed hard on my heart, turning its illusions to ice, shattering them. Was reborn then, free to scrawl own design on this morally blank world. Was Rorschach."

California Gold Rush (1848 - 1855)

This was a time that is hated with a deep and seething hate by all Socialists, Communists and Statists. During the Gold Rush common men and women sought their fortunes in a new world without the benefit of the wise and learned counsel of overeducated and worthless bureaucrats. People took the task of creating raw wealth into their own hands. No intellectuals were available to lecture the workers about the wonders of the eight hour day, worker's rights, unemployment insurance, workplace rules, "fairness" or early retirement. Intellectuals were neither wanted nor needed because intellectuals do not work for a living. The Intellectual Elite exists to tell everyone how smart they are and how everyone else is doing things wrong. Early California was a place for those who worked for a living.

Central Pacific Railroad

The Central Pacific Railroad (CPRR) is the former name of the railroad network built between California and Utah that formed part of the "First Transcontinental Railroad". It was rapidly built between 1863 - 1869. The "Golden spike", connecting the western railroad to the Union Pacific Railroad at Promontory, Utah, was hammered on May 10, 1869. Coast-to-coast train travel in eight days became possible, replacing months-long sea voyages and lengthy, hazardous travel by wagon trains. This project would never be built today in the Luddite People's Republic. There would be endless delays, environmental impact reports, labor unions, lawyers, court battles and Government Drones blocking every move.

Building the Golden Gate Bridge (1933 - 1937)

Financed and built by California in a record four years. The bridge ranks as one of the great wonders of the world stimulating the economy and creating endless jobs and wealth. Today it would never be built.

The People's Republic of California today

The #1 goal of the all powerful Big Brother State is the Marxist re-distribution of the wealth to the Elite so it can be used to buy votes in the next election. Today jobs and wealth are opposed by the Luddite Socialists because they claim it creates an un-equal society. Modern Californians are living off everything that was built by their ancestors. New projects that might create wealth are furiously opposed by an endless stream of Luddite-Leftist interest groups.
